A sample of gaseous PCl5 was introduced into an evacuated flask so that the pressure of pure PCl5 would be 0.50 atm at 523 K. Ho

wever, PCl5 decomposes to gaseous PCl3 and Cl2, and the actual pressure in the flask was found to be 0.78 atm. Calculate Kp for the decomposition reaction PCl5(g) PCl3(g) Cl2(g) at 523 K. Also, calculate K at this temperature.

Answer:

Kp = 0.35 & Kc = 0.0075

Explanation:

                                PCl₅ ⇄ PCl₃ + Cl₂

Initial(atm)                 0.5         0       0

At equilibrium         0.5 - p      p       p

  • Total pressure at equilibrium = 0.78
  • 0.5 - p + p + p = 0.78
  • p = 0.28

So partial pressure of PCl₅ = 0.5 - 0.28 = 0.22 atm

Similarly PCl₃ = 0.28 atm & Cl₂ = 0.28 atm

According to law of mass action

     

  •                  Kp     =       \frac{(Ppcl3)(Pcl2)}{(Ppcl5)}
  •                  Kp     =     \frac{(0.28)(0.28)}{(0.22)}
  •                  Kp     =     0.35

We know Kp = Kc x (RT)Δng

               Δng = change in gaseous moles

                       = product moles - reactant moles

                       = 2 - 1

                        = 1

R = universal gas constant = 0.0821 lit. atm. mol⁻¹. K⁻¹

 So Kc = \frac{(0.35) }{(0.0821 )(523 K)}

            = 0.0081

snow_lady [41]
Hey there!

The correct answer to your question is a compound.

A substance of two or more elements chemically combined in a set ratio, or proportion, is called a compound.
This is because compounds are made of two or more elements. Table salt is an example of a compound because it is made up of the elements chlorine and sodium.

Hope this helps you.
Have a great day!

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

                    1.8 moles of O₂

Explanation:

                     The balance chemical equation for said double replacement (photosynthesis) reaction is as follow;

                           6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂

According to balance chemical equation,

                 6 moles of O₂ are produced by  =  6 moles of CO₂

So,

                1.8 moles of O₂ will be produced by  =  X moles of O₂

Solving for X,

                     X =  1.8 mol × 6 mol / 6 mol

                     X =  1.8 moles of O₂

Stoichiometric problems in which moles are given and moles or other reactant or product asked are the simplest problems. One should only write the balanced chemical equation and perform above method to find the required moles.
